We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is effective. It is a good way of making sure that you're auditing what's going on. It also makes the end-user feel safe that you're not getting into things that you shouldn't be getting into because they're authorizing different areas for you to see. It is a pretty secure tool. It is important as far as security is concerned. It is very effective in terms of the support personnel being able to get the job done when they need to. It is easy for the end-user or the person we're helping out to understand how to allow somebody in to get the work done.""Remote Support 16.2 introduced Web Interface for Representative Console.with same functions as Desktop Console.""The most valuable feature of the solution concerns our company's main use case, which is for connection to our remote clients.""I personally like the ability to share files with other machines.""The solution has been very stable. We haven't had issues at all. It doesn't crash or freeze. There aren't bugs or glitches either.""The remote reboot feature is particularly valuable for rebooting terminal servers that have power controls disabled.""The most valuable feature of BeyondTrust Remote Support is the ability to control screens remotely.""We have not encountered any issues with stability. Updates leave us with less than 30 minutes of downtime."

"Screen monitoring and screen sharing, as well as screen remote control, are all very useful features.""Technical support is easy to reach.""It is a scalable solution. "

Cons
"The Remote support solution based on Bomgar has physical appliances deployed and leveraged to serve our multiple customers. Aging appliances are going RMA now and then.""The Bomgar representative console could do with modernising. The Web rep console introduced is a marked improvement, but is currently not at feature parity with the thick client. This is being worked on.""I would like to see more integration with iOS devices along with better connectivity and communication with these devices.""Static notes for hosts: If I could enter notes on a Jump Client and have them appear every time I connect to that Client, it would be a huge benefit.""They need to ensure that the remote support is compatible with the other cloud solution providers, like Huawei. Currently it is only compatible with Azure, AWS and KVM.""Although the learning curve is steep, the product is well-documented.​""The ability to connect mobile devices could be improved. Smartphones and tablets are becoming more prevalent throughout corporate environments. From time to time, we have problems connecting to those devices. You can't stage the application to connect without a user's input. You had to guide them through enabling permissions for the app. Then they need to enter the URL and session key. It would be great if they could streamline that process.""It is expensive. Its initial setup was also a little bit involved, but it was nothing that we couldn't eventually handle. Currently, it has the ability to share screens. Somebody having an issue with their phone can share their screen with a technician sitting at a computer. It would be nice to also be able to control phones remotely, but this could be a limitation of a phone's operating system."

"It could be integrated with IT management tools.""They do have some glitches in the microphone and speaker, especially during remote access.""Support could be more knowledgeable."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This product provides value for money."
  • "​The product maintenance and licensing costs are on the higher end, so I would carefully review how many licenses you need. The concurrent license model is helpful in this manner.​"
  • "Pricing is reasonable for what the service is offering. If it is looked at from a purely remote control perspective then it might appear expensive, but it is the wider functionality that should be considered too."
  • "Bomgar has a very fair pricing structure."
  • "Although the upfront cost is a bit overwhelming, the appliance will pay for itself in less than two years."
  • "The setup is complex. Purchase the remote implementation service and make them slow down and work with you."
  • "I would like to order more licenses. This would allow us to support more end users concurrently."
  • "I highly recommend using the tech team properly trained by Bomgar. This will help the tool be more useful."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by BeyondTrust Remote Support users.

    A Cybersecurity Architect at a tech vendor says, “The most valuable features are the ease of deployment, performance, pre and post-sales support, the vast majority of the localization they have done and the solution provider that they support. You can't compete with TeamViewer or any other similar products. It's completely in a class of its own.”

    An Enterprise Service Desk Systems Manager at a manufacturing company comments, "Screen sharing, in general, is pretty important for a service desk. Another thing that I have found to be very helpful is that you can also do screen sharing on a cell phone. When people have an issue with their cell phone, it is ordinarily very difficult to troubleshoot the issue. With BeyondTrust Remote Support, you can share the cell phone screen, and somebody can take a look at it remotely. I am not sure if other competing solutions offer this feature. It is pretty user-friendly. It is also good performance-wise."

    PeerSpot user Mark B., Sr VP of Business Operations at Networking Technologies and Support, Inc., explains that he thinks the solution is “Great for delivering end-user support, good at recording sessions, and very stable.
